If they ever turn Crestent City into a movie, this better be the song they play at the end for all the credits. Its amazing and truly shows what Bryce would be feeling. Itd be a great song for the ending.
"Lyrics" Shaky hands, heavy heart One breath away from falling apart It's my best kept secret. Build a house, made of glass Won't let you close enough to see the cracks Cause I can't show weakness If deception is an art form, You're looking at a fuckin connoisseur Nobody talks A bigger game than me Spins their half truths Quite as convincingly But you knew exactly What would hurt the most, And you dealt me the final blow I have to say, the worst betrayal is You standing there Acting all innocent Like your good intentions We're just misguided Well I don't buy it. Endless days, sleepless nights My false bravado to hide behind But you saw right through it, And every instinct told me to run From the force that We could become but you let me Believe it was worth the jump Nobody talks A bigger game than me Spins their half truths Quite as convincingly But you knew exactly What would hurt the most, And you dealt me the final blow I have to say, the worst betrayal is You standing there Acting all innocent Like your good intentions We're just misguided Well I don't buy it If chaos is a crusade, You're looking at A fuckin renegade Nobody talks A bigger game than me Spins their half truths Quite as convincingly But you knew exactly What would hurt the most, And you dealt me the final blow I have to say, the worst betrayal is You standing there Acting all innocent Like your good intentions We're just misguided Well I don't buy it, But when all is said and done You're still the One I want.
Not what I expected at all but I really like it. Good vibe song. I can totally see this with an amazingly dramatic scene full of flashbacks and breakdowns
If this is based on Bryce and Athalar, this is the song I imagine would play when she's riding away on the wave skimmer after she finds out that he was trying to buy the synth on the Istros.
This song is beautifully crafted. I love the softness of the melody and how it almost never seems to sound angry even though the words and music can get angry in the lines with the swear words, it still isn't very harsh. The rest of the time it is soft and delicate and hurt. I'm not used to this side of your music, it is much more vulnerable, but I really like it. The character must have been pretty destroyed in this relationship.
Omg Beth Your Writing is so Strong and So Relatable. You can actually feel every single emotion. The journey that you carry your fans on that is your life is a Beautiful one because unlike most we've at some point or another been traveling the same road and have walked a mile or 2 in those same shoes. It's so hard for some people to understand Depression or Mental Health issues unless they have experienced it first hand I know all to well the pain. I have been trying to deal with My Mental Health most of my life. Thank You afor Being a Constant Light in the Dead Of Night. Bless You and Your Struggles and Find The Beauty , Balance & Peace. Keep Walking ❤, with So much Love and a Big Hug. ❤
I've been obsessed with Crescent City since the day after the first book came out, but I reread both books just last week. I love this song so much. I'm guessing this song is about the (somewhat) end of book 1?
I was listening to a random mix of music while writing and I was so sure this was Taylor Swift 😳 Haven't read the book, but the vibes of the song are 👌
I wish I didn't have to worry whether one of the new songs was going to have bad language in it or not. Seems like all of the songs used to be clean but now it's becoming more frequent that they swear. Not trying to hate. Obviously each person gets to express themselves in their own way. I'm just sad that I will have to be moving on from this music because the bad language is becoming more frequent. I used to always be excited for a new song to come out but now I'm a lot less likely to listen to them because I've fallen in love with some of the songs only to hear an obscenity half way through. I know some people don't see language as a problem and I know Beth is free to write her songs however she sees fit. I just wish there was a clean version of all of them so that I could also continue to enjoy the music she works so hard to put out.
While I do understand where you're coming from, I don't see what youre talking about. Beth has like 3 songs that have a swear word in them and this is the only recent one.
Same. I was caught off guard and first commented something like "woah, that's new". But then... This is the first time I heard Beth swear in a song and now I'm lost between whether I should stay for good melodies and lyrics or leave because of swearing. It sucks. This artist won't be the same for me anymore.
@@kimnash9775 yes, we are. Lyrics are still words, sentences, and us "clean" people can stand swears irl, but not in music. Music is something that's supposed to be beautiful, not corrupted.
The book it's based on practically has an f bomb every second word,since it's an adult book, so the song fits the vibe of the book and the main character that's why it has them. I think to take them out would kind of defeat the purpose
If they ever turn Crestent City into a movie, this better be the song they play at the end for all the credits. Its amazing and truly shows what Bryce would be feeling. Itd be a great song for the ending.
“If deception is an art form, you’re looking at a fucking connoisseur” Literally loving this song so much 😍
This is probably her ONLY song with the “F” word in it
same
I could feel Bryce's pain through the song. I'm always impressed by how you deliver the emotions of book characters so accurately❤
you only truly know how to express a feeling if yourself have also felt it
If any of Sarah J Maas' books are every made into a serie (gosh i wish they were!) then your songs should totally be in them!
"Lyrics"
Shaky hands, heavy heart
One breath away from falling apart
It's my best kept secret.
Build a house, made of glass
Won't let you close enough to see the cracks
Cause I can't show weakness
If deception is an art form,
You're looking at a fuckin connoisseur
Nobody talks
A bigger game than me
Spins their half truths
Quite as convincingly
But you knew exactly
What would hurt the most,
And you dealt me the final blow
I have to say, the worst betrayal is
You standing there
Acting all innocent
Like your good intentions
We're just misguided
Well I don't buy it.
Endless days, sleepless nights
My false bravado to hide behind
But you saw right through it,
And every instinct told me to run
From the force that
We could become but you let me Believe it was worth the jump
Nobody talks
A bigger game than me
Spins their half truths
Quite as convincingly
But you knew exactly
What would hurt the most,
And you dealt me the final blow
I have to say, the worst betrayal is
You standing there
Acting all innocent
Like your good intentions
We're just misguided
Well I don't buy it
If chaos is a crusade,
You're looking at
A fuckin renegade
Nobody talks
A bigger game than me
Spins their half truths
Quite as convincingly
But you knew exactly
What would hurt the most,
And you dealt me the final blow
I have to say, the worst betrayal is
You standing there
Acting all innocent
Like your good intentions
We're just misguided
Well I don't buy it,
But when all is said and done
You're still the
One I want.
This gives me taylor swift vibes in the best way I love it!❤
I hope they collaborate
I thought the same exact thing!❤
@@Twilighterb4u It would be awesome ☺
Sure sounds like her, to me!.
Came here to say this! ❤
Not what I expected at all but I really like it. Good vibe song. I can totally see this with an amazingly dramatic scene full of flashbacks and breakdowns
Beth is amazing, one of the best artists I've had the pleasure of listening to.
Genuinely might be one of my new favourite songs of yours Beth... Really lovely
It just gives... Midnights (Beth's version)
If this is based on Bryce and Athalar, this is the song I imagine would play when she's riding away on the wave skimmer after she finds out that he was trying to buy the synth on the Istros.
This song is beautifully crafted.

This song fits the vibe of the book perfectly. Absolutely beautiful song!

The vibes are immaculate 🔥
What the lyrics of this song why hurting me😢
Don't know how you do it time after time. But you do, and we're better for it.
Your albums finally out. I downloaded it right away, and I have to say this song is the perfect way to top it off
This is beautiful!! 🤩
Absolutely Stunning!!! I L💜VE this song! Well done Beth!!!!
Beautiful as always beth
Beth Crowley, gracias por existir 🥲
Something new and just so beautiful I love it so much
Your music is like a sound track of mylife. With all I have been through you seem to find the words that describe the pain I have been through.
1st song for a book I've actually read, felt this in my soul poor Bryce
.... oh this hit hard. especially since I lost a friend recently. WOW..
This has made me now want to read the book.
Oh, wow. This so sounds so pretty. I hope you release the instrumental version of it too!
Awesome song!!
I love this song.
Still trying to connect it to crescent city tho.....???
My guess is that this is the moment Bryce finds out Hunts' actions towards the end of the first book, just before the Summit starts
This song hit me today!
LOVE LOVE LOVED IT!!!!!
Awesome song, fits the book and Bryce wonderfully. You should also do the bridge kingdom sometime,would love to see what you do with that🤗
Love her, too under rated.
what a incurable song buddy
Having this be the only song in which 'fuck' is featured I think it's so beautifully symbolic of Bryce's personality
Excellent, as always!
Love your music, Beth!! Have you considered doing a song based on the Warriors series by Erin Hunter?
THIS IS AMAZING OMFG
I have enjoyed the song.
I've read Crescent City, but this also makes me think of The Prison Healer trilogy
Beautiful as always. Has some heavy Twin Peaks/Chromatics vibes
beautiful
This is really good
Damn Beth, this is really pretty 😍❤️
man this song was so good that I now have to convince my sister to let me read her copy of crescent city
it worked and I'm on the third book now
I love you for this
It has Taylor Swift's vibes 🤩🤩
Totally sounds like it could be on Midnights
@@gwyneth19 Absolutely!!
There is also a part where mirror ball is present in the video
I was listening to a random mix of music while writing and I was so sure this was Taylor Swift 😳 Haven't read the book, but the vibes of the song are 👌
More SJM please 🤍🤍🤍 I love these
Why it feels hurting me😢
As usual I am not familiar with the inspo, but this slaps so hard.
Could you make a song inspired by "The kiss of deception" by Mary E. Pearson?
✨
🥺🥺🥺
I'm hearing mirror ball in this song
I want you too. It's chemical like Post says. No final blows just managing my business. Your my business
Wish I could read the books
Anyone here after finishing HOFAS?
Taylor Swift vibes 👌🏻
D.O.P.E AS FUK 💯 🔥 🔥
😍🫶
